Before the Battle of Taierzhuang, Zhang Zizhong ordered all the soldiers to take off their pants, and finally executed the battalion commander in tears
"I fought hard and died, asking myself if I am worthy of the country and the nation, and you should work hard to kill the Japanese and not live up to my ambitions." Kill the enemy and repay the country! The person who said this was none other than General Zhang Zizhong, who fought a bloody battle against the Japanese During the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, suffered 8 serious injuries, and was finally martyred.
In May 1940, in the Battle of Zaoyi, General Zhang Zizhong, commander-in-chief of the Kuomintang 33rd Group Army, was unfortunately killed in a battle with the Japanese army in Xiangyang. On May 28, 1940, the Nationalist government posthumously awarded Zhang Zizhong the rank of general of the army.
General Zhang Zizhong is the first famous general of the War of Resistance, the first hero of the War of Resistance, and the soul of the soldiers of the War of Resistance. Because of his spiritual characteristics of loyalty, righteousness, courage and martial arts, General Zhang Zizhong was praised by the people as "Living Guan Gong". General Zhang has always loved the people, strictly governed the army, and was extremely strict with his subordinates. Before the Battle of Taierzhuang, Zhang Zizhong ordered all the soldiers to take off their pants, and finally executed the battalion commander in tears.
During the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, there was a shortage of materials and the lives of the troops were in difficulty. The general often taught everyone: "We must strictly abide by military discipline and not bully the people." What we eat, wear, and use is bought by the people with blood and sweat; and our parents, brothers, and sisters are all people. General Zhang is known for strictly administering the army, and he has a mantra for officers and soldiers who violate military discipline: "Look I can't pick your skin!" His slogan was known to everyone in the army. At that time, there was also Duan Shunkou: "Shi Yousan's whip, Han Fuyu's rope, Liang Guanying's flat shoulder race like a dragon, the general's pickpocket is really ruthless!" ”
In 1938, General Zhang led his troops to the Taierzhuang area to participate in the Battle of the General Assembly.
One day, before the Battle of Taierzhuang, on the way to march, General Zhang suddenly ordered the whole army to stand solemnly and indignantly said: "Last night, when our army was stationed in Tian gezhuang, a brother went to the house of a man to spoil other people's girls. A 16-year-old yellow flower girl, she will marry in the future,...... Now it's all ruined. Manhood dares to be bold. Who did this? Stand up for me! It turned out that the night before, when the troops were garrisoning in Tiangezhuang, a fellow villager found Zhang Zizhong and cried to report that someone had abused and bullied his 16-year-old daughter. General Zhang was very angry when he heard this, and early the next morning decided to personally investigate the matter.
After the general asked, seeing that no one had admitted it, he shouted, "No one admits it?" Well, then I'm not welcome. The girl said that she had scratched the man's leg, in a company unit, all took off her pants and checked! Not a single one is allowed to leak, including me! Zhang Zizhong ordered all the soldiers to take off their pants.
Soon, the people who abused the girls were found out, and it was Sun Eryong, the battalion commander of General Zhang's guard battalion, who did the ugly work. 、
Sun Eryong, the battalion commander of the guard battalion, followed General Zhang for many years and blocked bullets for General Zhang three times. Zhang Zizhong was in Beiping, many traitors wanted to kill him, one night, Zhang Zizhong encountered assassins, and at the critical moment, it was the personal guard Sun Eryong who rushed to the front and used his chest to block a bullet for Zhang Zizhong. Two more times, too. In addition, Sun Eryong is also a member of the "Big Knife Team", and on the Great Wall of Xifengkou, Eryong has killed 18 ghosts. During the "July 7" incident, Sun Eryong led a company to guard the Lugou Bridge and fought against a brigade of the Japanese Kou. Eryong followed Zhang Zizhong for many years, getting along day and night, like father and son.
But now, Sun Eryong broke the law, which made Zhang Zizhong deeply sad!
"Eryong broke the law, how to deal with it?" The Judge of the Military Justice Division asked for instructions.
Zhang Zizhong burst into tears, and after 10 minutes of deep groaning, he said firmly: "Kill! Enforce military law, execute executions! Shot! ”
As soon as this statement came out, many people felt very surprised! The deputy commander said, "Commander, can you keep him alive?" He saved you!" ”
Eryong gets along with himself day and night, as close as father and son. But the law was not merciful, and Zhang Zizhong still said resolutely: "Military law is ruthless, implement it!" ”
Subsequently, Sun Eryong was kidnapped and taken to the execution ground. Gunshots rang out, and Zhang Zizhong burst into tears.
Unexpectedly, a few months later, Sun Eryong actually appeared in front of Zhang Zizhong again. With a withered face, his hair disheveled, and his military uniforms in tatters, he saluted Zhang Zizhong, but did not speak, and first shed tears. What's going on? Wasn't Eryong shot?
It turned out that during the execution that day, I don't know whether the law enforcement officer deliberately spared his subordinates, or whether the bullets were crooked, and the law enforcement soldiers did not hit ErYong's key point with two shots in a row. Eryong lay in the wilderness for a day, was found by the people, and carried back home. After treatment, when the wounds were healed, Er Yong insisted on coming to the troops.
Zhang Zizhong was greatly surprised to see ErYong return, and he was also very moved, if he had changed someone else, it was estimated that he would have run away long ago, and why would he catch up again? Immediately, Zhang Zizhong ordered: "Change Eryong's clothes, get some delicious food, shut it up, and wait for it." ”
Early the next morning, Zhang Zizhong convened a meeting of cadres at and above the regimental level and announced the decision: "Execute the execution!" Shoot Sun Eryong again! There is only one reason, to have an iron army. ”
When the chief of the military judicial department read Out Zhang Zizhong's warrant, Eryong appeared unusually calm. The Judge Advocate General asked, "What do you have to say?" Eryong said without hesitation, "Obey the order." "Then come with me, and go see the commander." "What to do?"" He invites you to dinner. ”
Before Sun Eryong was killed again, Zhang Zizhong invited Eryong to eat the "last meal", prepared a table full of wine and dishes, and personally made a toast. After the banquet, Zhang Zizhong led everyone to make a "final farewell" with Eryong on the execution ground.
When the death penalty was executed again, next to a large pit that had been dug, the comrades-in-arms shook hands with Eryong in turn to bid farewell. General Zhang also walked over to shake Hands with Eryong and said, "Don't worry, I will kill a few more devils for you!" After Sun Eryong listened, he nodded his head with tears and strode towards the pit...
A gunshot rang out, Sun Eryong fell, this time not so lucky as the last time, he really left. After Eryong was executed, Zhang Zizhong covered his face with his hands and staggered away from the execution site, tears pouring out of his fingers.
